Employee leave can put you in a real bind. Get the help
you need to legally and effectively handle leave issues!
Employee leave is one of the hottest issues
HR departments handle every year. In fact,
the number of requests for leave have
risen dramatically each year. From recent
changes to FMLA to privacy issues, you
can’t afford the legal fallout that comes
from handling leave by trial and error.
At this two-day workshop, you’ll get the
help you need with the hottest leave issues
including: preventing abuse, managing
absenteeism, records retention and
destruction, return-to-work issues, and
terminating employees on leave.
As an HR professional, you know that when it comes to leave, you’re dealing with more
than just FMLA. Oftentimes, you’ve got to worry about crossover with ADA and workers’
comp. Sometimes you even handle military and bereavement leave. And with so many
federal regulations to meet (that sometimes conflict), it can be hard to handle employee
leave legally AND effectively. If you’re tired of searching for the answers on your own,
you don’t want to miss this workshop. It’s chock-full of answers to your toughest leave
situations.
Get legally sound solutions for every leave situation you face.
At this two-day workshop, you’ll get a clear understanding of how to handle employee
leave. From the privacy issues to FMLA changes, you’ll leave with clear-cut guidelines
and information for handling every leave situation you face. Packed with dozens of howtos, whys, and what-fors, you owe it to your organization, your employees, and your own
peace of mind to enroll in this workshop today.
Special Session: Legally Terminating Employees on Protected Leave
Terminating employees on leave can be a risky decision to make. One misstep and you
and your organization can land in deep legal hot water. But sometimes it has to happen,
and that’s where this special session comes in. If you’ve been hesitant to think about
terminating employees on leave or you’ve questioned your methods in the past, this
session is for you. You’ll learn what the law says you can and can’t do … tips on what to
say and much more.
In just two days, we’ll catch you up on months of
research on employee leave, clarify the “gray areas,”
and determine exactly when you can and can’t
terminate employees on leave.
